Welcome to day 5 of Making Merry with Janome

As the number of available pre-holiday weekends counts down, there’s limited time left for crafting. One item that many of us think about {aka: imagine, but never quite finish}: making a Tree Skirt. Today’s offering provides a simple take on this traditional favourite. Have you got a few absolute favourite holiday fabrics that you have been wanting to use? Maybe this project from Tina Gallop Blank of Will Cook for Shoes will be just the ticket to get those faves out of your stash and under the tree.

A visit to Trina’s blog will deliver a wide range of crafting experiences. We got to know Trina as a curious sewist who was willing to give quilting a try. She soon fell in love with the craft and added it to her knitting, cooking, Bassett rescuing and marathon training (maybe not all crafts, but notable indeed!). Do drop by her blog and also watch for Trina’s recurring monthly quilting posts here on Janome Life.
